Guidebooks Diverse Learners Vocabulary, Day 2 Holli Dec, 04 2020 0 We really didn't know how to log into the call. Information before the meeting was confusing. I also stated that I was confused during the course and the presenter completely ignored the comment and continued to push through the content in order to complete two sessions at once. -0.06
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 1 There was difficulty with navigating between guides and other materials for me. I feel that the open source guides would be much easier to use if, when a direction is made, the page and book where the material is found was included. -0.01
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 1 getting into materials more deeply 0.00
Guidebooks Diverse Learners Vocabulary, Day 2 Holli Dec, 04 2020 2 Less talking and more doing 0.00
Nebraska IM-PL Fellowship Virtual Series Tara Oct, 20 2020 2 An agenda with objectives that we can see what learning targets are going to be met. Though good for building community, activities were too slow for two hours after a full work day. Need more purpose to the work. 0.72
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 3 I wish we could have spent time on how the "teaching" part is going to look like (daily lessons, an assessment, etc.). -0.60

EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 19 2020 4 slowing down and more time to work within my grade level and talk with those teachers 0.31
Guidebooks CM-6 Katie May, 22 2020 4 The training was very spaced out; a more compact training might have helped the experience. 0.56
Guidebooks Diverse Learners BootCamp, Day 2 Holli Aug, 17 2020 4 The what to do and where to go directions were very confusing. -0.26
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 5 More information on the rest of the program, not just the modules. I understand how this is the module training, but maybe by giving an overview how it is all fitting together. 0.76
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 5 The beginning seemed long before we could dig into materials. 0.00
EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 5 More handouts and more direct instructions for what we were supposed to do next or have with us, etc, It felt like I was flying blind most of the time. -0.12
EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 19 2020 5 I did not get my hands on the hard copy materials until Monday. It would have helped to have those in my hands. Also, I felt a lot of time was spent selling us on the merits of the program when our districts had already bought into it. It would have been beneficial to view a lesson being taught and to do some actual preparing or teaching of a lesson. -0.06

EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 7 The Zoom sessions did not seem that meaningful to me. However, I am not actually going to be teaching this curriculum, so maybe I wasn't as engaged as I should have been. -0.01
EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 20 2020 7 Working an example unboxing together then having us do ours on our own. Telling us at the beginning that working with peers, even digitally is best. Being walked through the EL website at the beginning so we could find material a little easier. 0.32
EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 19 2020 7 I was hoping to dive into the curriculum more. Maybe combine a couple sessions to shorten. -0.48

EL Virtual Bootcamp Vaishali May, 19 2020 8 The training was good, but it the unpacking was almost too much. Honestly, I felt like I should have received college credits for all the work and time we put into it. -0.55
EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 19 2020 8 Some items we had homework on before we discussed them. I would have liked to have learned about it, and then worked on the assignment after. -0.08
EL Virtual Bootcamp Mandy May, 19 2020 8 the assignments need to be housed in one place when it is a link--get it all to google or all downloaded microsoft. even a google folder broken up in sessions so we can quickly find things. That was exasperating... I have stuff all over now and will have to take the time to organize it all in a google folder. -0.42
